I did my Race for Life today - it was fantastic!!! Actually quite an emotional experience, and I ran it in 37 minutes and 30 seconds.

Down to 30 minutes next year, I think :))

And then I treated myself to a spiffy new technical tshirt (one that's self-wicking). And a new pair of hiking boots, which are fantastic!!! Cotswold Outdoor are absolutely crap at service, though - it took them about two hours to get my boots, and get them checked-out successfully.

But now I have some really snappy boots, that don't make my feet hurt. I'm kind of scared to wear them outside and get them all dirty, though....

Great job!!! Thats awesome :D You should be so excited :):):) Jas is looking for rooms and cars etc so you had better plan on getting those boots dirty!

I'm really chuffed with myself - I don't think that's too bad a time.

Congratulations! :) And what the hell is a self-wicking shirt? Does it double up as a candle?

Thanks. Maybe it's just a wicking shirt? One that takes moisture away from you in an effective manner. Or is the explanation for spontaneous human combustion.

Congrats mizziz. Can anyone hear the theme tune to 'The flashing blade'?

LOL. Dai was humming Chariots of Fire in the car on the way to the race. Very inspirational.
